Nepal and China Government, the border between
the two countries has been open for trekking.
While it had been a route for Nepalese pilgrims
for many years, foreign trekkers were never
allowed to trek from Nepal into Tibet.
The journey through Humla, Nepal's highest,
northernmost and most remote district, is
culturally and scenically rewarding. A trip to
Mt Kailash has always been regarded as a
pilgrimage. It satisfies the romantic in us that
the pilgrimage to Kailash is a difficult one.
We have combined such a nice adventure tour
with the opening up of the border crossing
between Nepal and Tibet via Taklakot (Purang),
Mt. Kailash is now accessible for foreign
trekkers with 6 days of trekking from the
beautiful region of Simikot (3900 M). For this
trek we follow the Humla Karnali route and trek
through rice and wheat fields, through surging
waters of the Humla Karnali, meet well-educated
friendly monks who speak excellent English and
yes, see some of the finest views nature has to
offer. |
